Why this ranking is different

The composite top-10 ranks by the SourceScore Index — an average of Citation Discipline, Modern Reference, and Citation Velocity. This page surfaces the SAME 10 magazine sources but ranks ONLY by Citation Discipline. Sources that lead the composite top-10 may not lead on a single dimension — this view is the precision lens.

Use this view when citation discipline is the decision-relevant signal for your citation. The composite ranking is the safer default; this dim-faceted view shows which top-10 source actually leads on the dimension you care about.
